I live out of state and was being my husband home to be laid to rest. Suzanna went about and beyond to help me get this beautiful head stone for my husband.

Recently this spring I found myself in the sad position of needing a gravestone for my wife and myself. In the past, my family has bought 4 stones from Brigden Memorials in Albion. I found out that they are now part of the Oakley Monument family. I found a stone I liked on site and provided them with a drawing of what I wanted. They took my drawing and refined it. It took several drawings to get it just right and they did. I am extremely happy with the way it turned out. The material is called Bahama Blue Granite and I haven’t seen any like it. I feel I have finally accomplished the things that needed to be done this spring. The staff was extremely caring and helpful. If you need a monument for pre-planning, the loss of a loved one or even as a decorative element. I highly recommend this business. Their work is first class.

Experience You Can Count On
You probably choose a cemetery monument only once or twice in your life. When you do, take full advantage of the understanding that our experience has given us. Our goal is to make your selection process as simple as possible while still satisfying all your wishes.

What is the lifetime of a memorial?
Granite is an extremely hard material that withstands the elements very well. Unlike marble-a softer substance-granite has been and will continue to be around for centuries. We are extremely selective in the granite choices that we offer clients. Not all granite is alike and longevity can vary depending on its quality, origin, and workmanship.

Is there a right time
to buy?
There is no “right” or “wrong” time to look into purchasing a memorial. It’s simply when the time is right for you. Many people purchase a memorial “at need,” after a loved one has passed away. Others purchase a memorial “pre-need’. Pre-need buyers tell us they value ordering exactly what they want, while reducing stress on surviving family members.
What are the key steps in ordering my memorial?
- You’ll work with a specialist to personalize a suitable memorial, sign an order, and make a deposit.
- You’ll receive a professional rendering of your memorial to review, make any changes, and sign for approval.
- Upon approval, the memorial goes into production and once completed, gets washed down, inspected, and scheduled for installation in the cemetery.
- Once set, we take a confirming digital snapshot and notify your specialist, who in turn notifies you.
